m805_893x memory layout

The bootloader passes memory layout profile to kernel via tag pmap.

The address/size of TAG/Kernel/Ramdisk are decided by macros in

lk/target/m805_893x_evm/rule.mk:

BASE_ADDR := 0x80000000

MEMBASE := 0x82000000

MEMSIZE := 0x01000000   //16MB

TAGS_ADDR := BASE_ADDR+0x00000100

KERNEL_ADDR := BASE_ADDR+0x00008000

RAMDISK_ADDR := BASE_ADDR+0x01000000

The log shows:

According to the log info, together with the official spec,  we can get the system memory layout like this:

Physical/Virtual address	description	size	comment
80000100 - 80007FFF / c0000100 - c0007FFF	ATAG	32KB
80008000 -                     / c0008000 -	Kernel Image	about 4-5 MB
81000000 -                     / c1000000 -	ramdisk (initramfs)	about 600KB
80000000 - 82000000 / c0000000 - c20000000	Kernel / User	32MB
82000000 - 83b00000 / c2000000 - c3b00000	UMP	27MB	contiguous physical memory for dedicated UMP
83b00000 - 83f00000  / c3b00000 - c3f00000	FB WMIXER	4MB
83f00000 - 84000000  / c3f00000 - c4000000	RAM console	1MB
84000000 - 86c00000 / c4000000 - c6c00000	Overlay	44MB
86c00000 - 8aa00000 / c6c00000 - caa00000	Video	62MB
8aa00000 - 8bf00000  / caa00000 - cbf00000	VIQE / JPEC decoder	21MB
8bf00000 - 8df00000   / cbf00000 - cdf00000	FB_Video	32MB	Frame buffer
8df00000 - 8e000000  / cdf00000 -ce000000	NAND	1MB
8e000000 - 8e600000 / ce000000 - ce600000	JPEG encoder/capture	6MB
8e600000 - c0000000 / ce600000 - FFFFFFFF	Kernel / User	794MB	Max mali heap size is 750MB; Max UMP heap size is 64MB

NOTE: __virt_to_phys(x)    (x) - PAGE_OFFSET + PHYS_OFFSET

             __phys_to_virt(x)    (x) - PHYS_OFFSET + PAGE_OFFSET

             PAGE_OFFSET = 0xC0000000;

             PHYS_OFFSET = 0x80000000;

As we can see,  the virtual address space, from 0xc2000000 t0 0xce600000 (198MB), is reserved for specific 8935 hardware blocks, like VIQE, FB, and so forth.

The virtual address spaces, from 0xc0000000 t0 0xc2000000 and from 0xce600000 - 0xFFFFFFFF (total 826MB) is used by ATAG / Kimage / ramdisk /kernel.

NOTE: 198 + 826 = 1024MB (on-board DDR3)
